The FIRST Balloon.

Tne discovery of the balloon was by Eteph-
en- and Joseph MOntgolfer, sons OF Peter
Montpelier, a paper maker of Annony,
France. The brothers had noticed the sus-
pension Of the clouds in the atmosphere and
1t occurred to them that if they could en-
close any vapor Of the nature CT cloud in a
large and very light bag it might rise and
carry the bag with it into the sir They sc
cordingly made experiments, initiating bag
with smoke from fire placed underneath
and found that either the smoke or some va
por from the Ere did ascend and carry the
bag with It, Being thus assured of the cor
rectness Of their views, they determined to
have public ascent Of balloon on a large
scale. They accordingly invited the states

descended at the expiration Of ten minutes
at distance Of one and one half mile. The
brothers MongOlfer imagined that the bag
rose because Of The levity Of the smoke and
other vapOr given forth by the burning
straw, and it was not until some time latter
that ii was recognized that the ascending
power was due merely to the lightness of the
heated air compared TO an equal volume Of
air at lower temperature.

TALK IS CHEAP !
BUT IT TAXES MONEY
TO MAKE THE MARE GO!

Some houses in the Trade say
they sell the best goods, some say
they sell the cheapest goods, and
some again say that they bought
out a large manufacturer and
sell goods for less money than
they can be manufactured for.
We make all our own Clothing,
excepting the lightweight Sum
mer Goods. These we buy of
Alfred Benjamin & Co. We flat
ter ourselves to possess as good
a Taste to select from a grand
line all the novelties that can be
made, and care not whether a
house is in existence for years.
We have only been here fifteen
months, and already we have all
reasons to be thankful to the
public for their kind and liberal
patronage. We are doing every.
thing that is legitimate to gain
our success, and we certainly
have all reasons to be proud of
the liberality bestowed upon us.
We will do our best to retain the
good will and increase the num-
Der Of our friends by the thou
sands. Special attention is called
to our great reduction in Straw
Goods for Men, Boys and Chill
dren. Mems Manila sold all the
world over for So, our price now
So; Mems Pearl Derby Hats
worth $3.50, our price now So.
The reason for reducing prices
right in the season is to give
every one in need Of any of
these goods the benefit, and for
ourselves to reduce ourimmense
stock, so as to get room for our
fall stock, now being manufac-
tured. Our line of Summer

Opera ROuse Tonight.

This evening our theater goers
will have an opportunity of seeing
Roland Reed in "Humbug." The
Company will play here tonight
only. Mr. Reed is the life of the
piece, but as some may imagine
that there is nothing of it but Ro-
land Reed, it may be well to give
the following brief sketch of the
play.
Mrs. Ponsby is the wealthy relict
of a person who made his fortune
in the vulgar vocation of butchering
hogs. She is as silly as she isaffect-
eddy pretentious, and passes for
member of notable English fam
lily. Billy Bartz Is the son of a
German shoemaker, being an ad-
venturous, tricky though notvicious,
individual, he assumes the name Of
his former employer, who has gone
to India, and meets Mrs. Ponshy as
Jack Luster, scion of one of the
first families of Virginia. Jack
represents himself as the son of the
India Luster, and explains his in
digent circumstances by reciting
the pretended fact of quarrel with
his father. Mrs. Ponsby marries
him to gain social caste, and the
play depends upon the efforts Of
these two precious pretenders each
to keep the other in ignorance of
their equally hum Bile origin.

Artestan Excitement.

The striking of artesian water at
depth of nearly 900 feet at Ride
outs ranch at Willows, California,
has caused a great deal of excite
ment, as it is in a section supposed
to be outside the artesian belt. The
following dispatch appears in the
Record Union:
The arteslan water struck some
days ago by n. d. Rideout seems
to gain strength as it flows. The
whole community is quite excited
over it, and others will be put down
Immediately. Rideout has ordered
heavier and more improved ma
chinery from the East, and will
sink a well for irrIgating purposes.
This demonstrates beyond question
that artesian water is to be had,
and cheaply too.
The future success of this sec
ton is assured. Property has al
ready felt the effects OF 1t, and own
ers are firm in prices. j. H. j.
Troxel, T. Quint, the Glenn estate
and p. r. Garnett will all sink
wells during the Summer.
This well, as stated previously in
this paper, flows 6 gallons a minute,
and real estate goes up in conse-
quence, because the people of that
section know the value of the find.
Here in this city a dozen better
wells have been struck at much
less depth, but real estate has not
advanced on the strength OF it, be-
cause the people of this State do not
know how to estimate the real value
of such things. Nothing but a $50
piece seems to rouse any enthusi-
asm In Nevada.

A Fine stallion.

Yesterday a fine pure blood stall
ion with Clydesdale strain FREEDOM
mating, was exhibited on the street.
1t came from McEwens ranch near
Lake View and although, but three
years old weighs 1850 lbs and is Is
hands high. 1t is by far the best
animal of that strain ever exhibit
ed in this city, and its heavy but
symmetrical proportions excited the
admiration of everybody on the
street. The animal was bred and
raised on the owners ranch, who is
emphatic in the belief that Nevada
is the State above all others in the
country, to raise good horses.

9he Ogd way the Best.

When Rothaker. the editor of
the Republican, assaulted Rose
water, the editor Of the Bee, down
at Omaha the other day, it Is said
that the Bee man got the worst of
it simply because he was delayed
bv having to pull up the leg Of his
pantaloons to get at the knife in
his bootleg. This shows the decay
of editorial ability at Omaha. Only
a very short time ago an Omaha ed
itor would have wanted to fight if
he had been accused of wearing the
legs of his pantaloons anywhere ex-
cept in his boots. Perhaps the
spectacle of their number standing
on street crossing, making frantic
efforts to pull up his pantaloons
with another journalist slugging
him time after time with a oily,
will convince the other Omaha ed
itors that they had better return to
the good, old-fashIoned way.
